2024 Honda HR-V

The redesigned-for-2023 HR-V has been upgraded to the latest Civic platform. It's a larger and more pleasant vehicle than the outgoing model, but the improvements to the ride quality and sound insulation still don't go far enough. Handling is ordinary but ultimately secure. It's a practical and user-friendly small SUV, although its 158-hp, 2.0-liter engine and continuously variable transmission make the HR-V feel underpowered. The controls and infotainment system are very easy to use. Through 2025, the base LX and mid-level Sport got a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, while the top EX-L got a 9-inch screen and wireless charging pad. For 2026, all trims received the larger, 9-inch infotainment touchscreen, standard wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a standard wireless charging pad. The HR-V comes standard with FCW, AEB with pedestrian and cyclist detection, LDW, and LKA. While both BSW and RCTW are standard on the Sport and EX-L, neither is available on the base LX--a disappointment. Lane centering assistance, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams are standard across all trims.
